Which province in Canada is called "the Garden Province"?

Prince Edward Island (PEI) is called "the Garden Province" because half of the land in the province is cultivated. To note its specific location, Prince Edward Island is located in the Gulf of St. Lawrence, west of Cape Breton Island, north of the Nova Scotia peninsula, and east of New Brunswick. Its southern shore bounds the Northumberland Strait. The island's landscape is pastoral. Rolling hills, woods, reddish white sand beaches, ocean coves and the famous red soil have given Prince Edward Island a reputation as a province of outstanding natural beauty.

With the island's lush landscape, it has a strong bearing on the economy and culture. Today, the smaller, rural communities as well as the towns and villages throughout the province, retain a slower-paced, old-world flavor. And, it now turns out that Prince Edward Island also has become a popular tourist destination for relaxation.

But, the economy of most of the rural communities on Prince Edward Island is still based on people working within small scale agricultural operations. Moreover, despite Prince Edward Island's small size and reputation as a largely rural province, it is the most densely populated province in Canada. The people on PEI are finding ways to thrive in "the Garden Province".
